Colts Training Camp

Kevin is still off work recovering from his injuries and I'm taking time off this week to care for both of them. Taking care of Camden is similar to a newborn. She is completely dependent on us. She needs her diaper changed every 2-3 hours because only a size 1 diaper will fit inside the cast. This includes through the night...so I'm getting up 2-3 times each night to change diapers - ugh!

So since we had the time, we decided to head 30 minutes down the road to Rose Hulman Institute of Technology where the Indianapolis Colts have training camp each year. Kevin has always wanted to do this, but never had the opportunity. I guess it's the upside of the accident - we are getting things done - both business and fun!

Camden wore her Colts cheerleading outfit. It is a 3-6 month dress, but now works as a perfect shirt...especially with her cast.

Morning practice was from 9:30-10:45am and we saw many of our favorites take the field.

Of course, there was Peyton!

But also Dwight Freeney, Joseph Addai, Tony Gonzales, Bob Sanders (sidelines), Dallas Clark (sidelines), and Offensive Coach Tom Moore.

After practice we braved the crowds and went down to the locker room entrance to try to get autographs. Peyton, surprisingly, worked the crowd a bit and came down the line. He, unfortunately, stopped about 5 people from us and went back in. We even tried to use Camden's cast (shameful, I know)...but he's an expert at blocking out all the screams for his attention.

Curtis Painter, a rookie out of Purdue, also came down the line. He "Boiler up"-ped and signed Camden's cast. Thanks #7!

It was a very fun morning and will proabably become a family tradition for us.

Camden was tuckered out and was zonkered about 2 minutes out of the parking lot...snack in hand.
